问题     It is easier to negotiate initial salary requirement because once you are inside, the organizational constraints (约束) influence wage increases. One thing, however, is certain: your chances of getting the raise you feel you deserve are less if you don’t at least ask for it. Men tend to ask for more, and they get more, and this holds true with other resources, not just pay increases. Consider Beth’s story:
    I did not get what I wanted when I did not ask for it. We had cubicle (小隔间) offices and window offices. I sat in the cubicles with several male colleagues. One by one they were moved into window offices, while I remained in the cubicles. Several males who were hired after me also went to offices. One in particular told me he was next in line for an office and that it had been part of his negotiations for the job. I guess they thought me content to stay in the cubicles since I did not voice my opinion either way.
    It would be nice if we all received automatic pay increases equal to our merit, but "nice" isn’t a quality attributed to most organizations. If you feel you deserve a significant raise in pay, you’ll probably have to ask for it.
    Performance is your best bargaining chip (筹码) when you are seeking a raise. You must be able to demonstrate that you deserve a raise. Timing is also a good bargaining chip. If you can give your boss something he or she needs (a new client or a sizable contract, for example) just before merit pay decisions are being made, you are more likely to get the raise you want.
    Use information as a bargaining chip too. Find out what you are worth on the open market.
    What will someone else pay for your services?
    Go into the negotiations prepared to place your chips on the table at the appropriate time and prepared to use communication style to guide the direction of the interaction. (345 words)
We can learn from the passage that______.

选项 A、unfairness exists in salary increases
B、most people are overworked and underpaid
C、one should avoid overstating one’s performance
D、most organizations give their staff automatic pay raises

答案A

解析 本题属于推断题。第三段的含义是:如果我们都能够按能力自然而然地取得相应的工资增长就好了(nice),但是“nice”(这种好的理想状态)并不是大多数公司组织的特点。如果你认为你应该提升工资,你就应该提出相应的要求。从第三段所表述的含义中可以推断出大多数公司组织不能做到按员工的能力给员工自动晋升工资,其结果是:会哭的孩子有奶吃。故选项A是正确选项。选项B中的“most people”在原文中没有提到。选项C的内容在原文中也未涉及。而选项D的内容与第三段内容恰恰相反。
